This Liquidambar is a particularly large example of the species for the local area with significant height, canopy spread and trunk girth.

The tree is the largest private tree in the vicinity and makes a major contribution to the local landscape. The tree has significant visual presence from the public realm and provides substantial canopy coverage.
